Graphic design, manga, anime, video games, Asian ball-jointed dolls, pixel dolls, YAOI, reading, alternative/indie/emo/pop-punk music, drawing, collecting useless doodads, Disney Princesses... You name in, I'll become obsessed with it.
Music
REM, Fall Out Boy, Death Cab for Cutie, Panic! at the Disco, Keane, Utada Hikaru, Maaya Sakamoto, L'arc~en~Ciel, The Postal Service, The Killers, Frou Frou, Phantom Planet, Jason Mraz, Sarah McLachlin, Paramore, Cobra Starship, Finger Eleven, Flyleaf, Chevelle, Metallica, Namie Amuro, Ayumi Hamasaki, Pat Benatar, Do As Infinity, Heart of Air, They Might Be Giants, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Chihiro Onitsuka, Kotoko/I've, Cake, Jade, BoA, Olivia, Hyde, Gackt, dream, Tori Amos, The Decemberists, Arai Akino, The Fragments, Blue October, Keane, Kokia, Kumi Koda, Kotani Kinya, Linkin Park, A Perfect Circle, Tool, Korn, Green Day, SEE-SAW/Yuki Kajiura, Yoko Kanno, pretty much any 80s band, and I ? classical music.
Movies
I've said before that I'm not one for movies, but I have to say that Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are so hilarious that everyone should see them. Same with Knocked Up and 40 Year Old Virgin. Animated Disney stuff is always nice when you need to be sedated, I like scary movies and martial arts/action flicks. That is, when I've been tricked into watching a movie.
Television
Dirty Jobs, Mythbusters, and pretty much everything else that's on the Discovery networks or the History Channel.
Books
Manga: Loveless, Tsubasa/XXXholic, Only the Ring Finger Knows, Bleach, and tons of others.
Classics: Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, The Heart of Darkness.
Fantasy: Mercedes Lackey's awesome library, Anne McCaffrey's Pern series, Piers Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality series.
Guilty Pleasures: The mystery/romance novels by Jayne Ann Krentz and her alter-egos Amanda Quick and Jayne Castle. I will also, very reluctantly, admit that I read anime fan fiction.
Heroes
I still don't have a hero. I think it's because I never wanted to be "just like" anyone.

I haven't been on here for more than 5 seconds in months. Why? Crazy stuff in my life. #1 craziest thing: Joe and I broke up. We were together for almost 4 years, I ♥ him and want nothing but happiness for him in the future.
No more on that topic.
I've changed a lot in the last year. I'm not content with my life as it is. For the last 9 years, I've sorta lived "on hold." I was just holding for something to happen, and working my future aspirations into the plans other people had. I'm not ok with that anymore. I decided that I don't want to work around the hopes and dreams of the people I love anymore, I want to ACTIVELY work toward my own hopes and dreams.
Like my emo-riffic layout? I made it.
Who I'd like to meet:
I've really been wondering if I actually want to meet the people that interest me. I mean, what if they're totally not what I thought and I'm disappointed and can't enjoy them anymore? What if I disappoint them and they think they've wasted their careers on dorks like me? What if I'm so totally starstruck that I never stop talking about the experience and my friends and family want to kill me? That said, here's the list: Mercedes Lackey, Fall Out Boy, Yoko Kanno, Maaya Sakamoto, Andrew Zimmern, Mike Rowe, the Mythbusters, Anthony Bordain, Bear Grylls, Utada Hikaru, REM, Christina Aguilerra, Barack Obama, John McCain, Hillary Clinton, Naoko Takeuchi, CLAMP, Drew Carey...I don't know, probably a bunch of other people that I'll remember when I'm falling asleep later.
